The TAMA 50th Limited Starclassic Mirage is a 5-piece acrylic shell pack that celebrates five decades of TAMA drums, as well as honor the appearance of the original Starclassic Mirage in 2007. Re-released in a spectacular Crystal Ice-and elegantly contrasted by black-nickel hardware-the seamless acrylic shells deliver excellent attack, clarity and projection. The shell pack includes enough drums to provide bountiful creative options while crafting grooves and fills-a 22x16" bass drum, 10x7" and 12x8" rack toms, and 14x12" and 16x14" floor toms.
“We’re celebrating TAMA being around for 50 years,” says Kenny Aronoff, who has recorded drums on songs that have achieved more than 300 million total sales. “And I’ve played their drums for 44 of them. This acrylic Starclassic Mirage kit sounds amazing. The toms are incredibly even sounding and they work well together. The kick is punchy with just enough ambience and not too much ring. Basically, it has everything you need. The snare drum cracks like a metal snare. It has a lot of attack and just enough ring. This kit definitely has its own unique sound, but it’s very workable with guitars, vocals, keyboards and bass.”
The TAMA 50th Limited Starclassic Mirage also features die-cast hoops that center and focus the sound while also preventing bothersome and bizarre overtones. The result is bold, clear and transparent tones that come alive onstage and in the studio.

It's a beautiful kit with a great sound! First class in every way.

They skimped so hard here and are overcharging
Have Kenny and Paul Schafer ever been seen in the same room at the same time?
@@AP02112 ….and a Ludwig snare lol lol lol
Clearly TAMA been around 50yrs, for a reason. You can see rite through this set,nothing to hide.
Well I just don't know what impresses me the most... That gorgeous looking and sounding kit or drum god Kenny Aronoff's eternal youth!!
I'm always out of sync - 30 years behind (or ahead) of the trends. About 25 years ago, I started converting my 5 piece Tama Rockstar kit to acrylic shells, made by the same people who made them for Ludwig and many others. By the time I was done, it was a 7 piece kit, using Remo Pinstripes at the time, along with a custom 14x7 inch shell snare drum. Man, they were LOUD and BRIGHT! Eventually, I put Evans Hydraulic heads on all the batter heads, and it sounded more like the DW sound. When I got close to retirement, I sold them off, but dang, I miss them. And the acrylics look so good! Nothing Like 'em!
Kenny Aronoff is defintely a great drummer, artist.
Great production and representation! Thank you.
Ive been playing a Mirage kit from Tama for about 6 years. Sound guys love them and I must say, they are durable and stay in tune. Weather does not mess with them either, and they are great to gig at fairs and festivals. Great option when I want to leave the Sonors at home.
Amazing kit for an amazing drummer. I saw him with Joe Satriani at G3 recently. The spacing between his rack toms still throws me for a loop. If it works for him it works for him.
Rock on Kenny....
It's my drum kit..... exactly the same : and yeah it sounds very great ! 🔥♥️
love this kit, they got it sounding great, and KENNY!!!!! Yeah man!!
Jqck & Diane started it all for me! Thanks Kenny!!!
Looks great, sounds great 👍🏻 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Looks and sounds great!
The drummer's pretty good too 😉
Impressive sounds amazing
great sound!
Ah the Jackie & Diane break. Epic. I used to have the Vista's from way back (Early 80's). Got the DW in Smoke (Sweetwater version) 2 yrs ago (They are great). And Kenny just convinced me to buy the Tama Mirage (Luv the blk nickle hrdware too). Do I need 7 kits ? Nope. Am I a professional drummer ? Nope. Ooh I'm going to be in so much trouble 🤕 (Btw, if you call GC or MF, they'll cut you a deal on this kit...looking at you Sweetwater 😞) Thanks Kenny.
One of the Best
Love you.
Bro!!!
Nice my brather
I don't think Kenny's achieved enough 😅
Bello/Magnifico.💰💰🤑🤑🤑🤑
All drums should light up fancy colours. Also the drum sticks. Also the drummer.
2:15 Kenny playing soft.
Ne seri...
Well you could let Tama know that a 2K kit shouldn't come with an 8-lug bass drum with cheap spikes. It cheapens the whole kit, and the Starclassic brand.
Sometimes with acrylic you have to avoid making too many holes or they become a risk for cracking under extreme conditions.
@@jofujenkins Hi Jo, it's the same with any other material, they just went cheap and they should know about it. These levels of finishes are acceptable up to the Hyperdrive and similar drumkits. Not Starclassic, not even Performer. That's just cutting corners.
Floor tom leg brackets are low end too.
@@AP02112 Yup. They're less noticeable though (the kick drum is right in your face) but you're totally right. What they did was take the old Superstar Hyperdrive hardware (I should know, I own one).
Bottom line is: this will stop people like me from buying a Starclassic, and even though I'm a Tama nut, I will consider other options on the market (and there are really nice ones with higher finish for way less money).

Not impressed 👎
You should have a contest and give this away to me 😁
